Since the jailbreak, every time my 4S' battery dies the phone gets stuck on the Apple logo and full brightness at boot when charged. If I reset using Power + Home it will then boot normally. Has anyone else experienced this?
This is a known issue with the jailbreak. A lot of people are reporting this. The jailbreak team tweeted that they are working on a fix for this. Hopefully it will just be a Cydia patch so you don't have to jailbreak again. I was having this same issue and decided to return to stock and wait till a fix is in place before I give it another try.
